Customers rave about the friendly service delivered consistently by the staff, enhancing the overall dining experience. The live music and karaoke nights keep the atmosphere lively and engaging, attracting a fun-loving crowd. The beer and cocktail selection often impress visitants, making it a perfect location for casual drinks after work. Many love the generous portion sizes of dishes like the loaded nachos and traditional fish and chips, which provide great value for money. The sense of community fosters conversations among strangers, with patrons often forming new friendships over a shared meal or drink.
Most Disliked
Some patrons note that the pub can get quite busy during peak hours, particularly Monday nights, leading to longer wait times for food or drink. While many appreciate the relaxed atmosphere, some may find the noise level during karaoke or live music events a bit overwhelming if they prefer a quieter setting. Given that food service is unavailable on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, some guests wishing for a meal these days may leave disappointed. A few mention the need for a broader dessert selection, desiring more enticing options beyond the current offerings. Overall, occasional hiccups don’t deter the loyal customers who love returning to this local gem.

June 2024 please note that they no longer serve food on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Revisited today March 2022. Had a meal and was delighted. Best fish I have had in ages. Cooked to perfection. Great, friendly service. Highly recommend. Last pub left in Stonehouse. 25 years ago there were at least 4 others. I am not a pub goer so cannot comment on the bar. I do occasionally go for lunch in what must be the lounge. Comfortable place to go for a meal. Always good, friendly service.
